Commentary
in the archive.

The interpretation of the examination and the allegation about neck marks are attributed to the brother; they are not independent findings of this archive. Compare the wording used by Metrópoles, BNews RN and JR. The time comes from publication metadata: 10:57 UTC, converted to 07:57 Brasília time; the header displays only a relative age. The article date does not establish when each event occurred.
